In 2016 Republicans picked a black man and a Hispanic man as their nominees for Congress. Democrat’s picked two pasty white folks you’d be hard-pressed to separate in a line up from a pack of 20-pound white printer paper. So, let’s be clear about something.

It’s the Democrats who are obsessed with race and therefore most likely to be racists.
And for the record, New Hampshire Republicans also picked a different black man and a young woman of Hispanic descent in the two contests previous to that in NH CD2.
New Hampshire may well be 94% white, but Republicans are far more likely to nominate people of color for congress than Democrats.
Even in 2008, in the NH Democrat primary, Barack Obama only got 37% of the vote. The other 63% went to a crowd of white people. White-ass Hillary Clinton won the state with John Edwards (who has dark air) coming in third. Richardson and Kucinich were fourth and fifth. Biden was a distant 6th with 0.2% of the vote.
The next election is around the corner and Democrats are at it again. The top three contenders are whiter than that ream of 20# white printer paper. Regardless of the poll, it’s always Biden, Sanders, and Warren. And not just in New Hampshire and Iowa.
So, people of color are supporting them. Are you insulting people of color for choosing a pasty Marxist with a hairs-difference between them instead of someone browner?
No analysis on that but New Hampshire and Iowa are too white for an early primary.
“In our quest to quarterback the race, predominantly white electorates bestow ‘surge’ status upon candidates who are out of step with crucial voting blocs,” griped Tarlov. “The result is that the atmosphere of this primary season is divorced from the reality of a) how elections are won for Democrats and b) the values and priorities candidates espouse in campaigning.”
It Comes With the Package
There are progressive meddlers here in New Hampshire who not only think we are too white but believe they can do something about that.
I’ll admit, New Hampshire is not like the rest of the nation.
New Hampshire has more public school capacity than students to fill them. Our hospitals are not turning people away for lack of beds. We’ve got a growing community college system, state university system and some very well regarded universities.
Year after year New Hampshire is one of the safest states in the country. Our residents enjoy one of the highest average incomes, standards of living, and some of the best overall health outcomes in the United States. We consistently have one of the lowest poverty levels in America. We also have very low unemployment and at the moment an employee’s market thanks to a labor shortage.
Democrats obsessed over their own racism would like to implement the sorts of ideas that would make the state more like New York or California where wages are defined by legislators and poverty is the highest in the nation. Their health outcomes are declining, their schools are a mess, and both property and violent crime are always a problem.
If we’re looking for solutions to those problems, and the left claims they are (even though their Democrat-run cities have a supermajority monopoly on them) wouldn’t you rather have a place with a long history of having prevented or solved them lead the way in choosing the next potential leader of the nation?
No?
Then you’re not serious about that, and this is fine because I have long argued that you never were.
If you want to fix something, professional Hockey is too white. Fix that first.
Let me know how that goes.
